and in time, perfected it.

Notes

While Soul Bolt may seem underwhelming as it features an incredibly slow cast time, and no ability to track a target, Soul Bolt is able to do massive amounts of damage if the full beam of energy hits a single target. This is most noticeable against slower and larger targets, such as Ogres. If the entire stretch of the energy beam hits the target (only possible from close range), the damage output can rival Soul Geyser in some cases.
